Question

Graph the figure and classify it. Then find the area.

A(-3,-4), B(-3, 5), C (2, 5), D (2, -4)

Answer 1

area is 5*9 which is 45

Answer 2

Area = length x width

To find the length and width of the rectangle, we can use the distance formula:

Distance = sqrt((x2 - x1)^2 + (y2 - y1)^2)

Using the distance formula, we can find that the length of the rectangle is 7 (the distance between B and C), and the width of the rectangle is 9 (the distance between B and A). Therefore, the area of the rectangle is:

Area = length x width = 7 x 9 = 63

So, the area of the given rectangle is 63 square units.
